Elsa Miller
Songwriting Challenge - 2021
Maple Valley, WA – Senior at Tahoma High School
Miller is a multi-instrumental musician, and draws most of her inspiration from her family, art, music, and theater. Miller has been involved in theater her entire life, and dreams someday to perform on a Broadway stage. Her most recent writing venture has been as part of a writing team at Village Theatre in Washington State, writing the show Dumb Club. Dumb Club is the story of six kids who, over the span of four weeks, two days, and 16 hours, learn to fight, love, and improvise. While she wrote “The Beginning” alone, the rest of the show was written in collaboration with Sydney Coe, Jackie Moyle, and Mia Basulto, with mentorship from Porscha Shaw, Elisa Money, and Joel Arpin.
